Cousins to ink one-year deal with stacked Warriors

DeMarcus Cousins, who suffered a season-ending Achilles injury last season, reportedly has agreed to a one-year contract with the defending champion Golden State Warriors, US media reported on Monday.

Cousins is expected to sign a $5.3 million deal which will allow him to join a team that was already a heavy favourite to repeat as champions and now boasts a starting lineup that would rival many starting all-star game squads, American broadcaster ESPN reported.
